_Myrtaceæ_. A genus of stove evergreen trees and shrubs, very difficult
to cultivate. Flowers large, racemose. Leaves opposite or whorled,
generally obovate; margins toothed or entire. Fruit one-seeded, fleshy.
They require a compost of two parts loam, one peat, and one sand. Water
should be given in abundance, and a moist atmosphere at all times
maintained, the temperature ranging from 65deg. to 95deg. Propagated
by cuttings obtained from the lateral shoots; these, taken off at a
joint when the wood is ripe, planted in sand, with a hand glass over
them, root readily. The cuttings should not be stripped of any of their
leaves.
=B. racemosa= (raceme-flowered). _fl._ red; racemes pendulous,
very long. _l._ cuneate-oblong, acuminated, serrulated. _h._ 30ft.
Malabar, 1822. (B. M. 3831.)
=B. speciosa= (showy).* _fl._ purple and white, large and handsome,
disposed in an erect thyrse. _l._ shining, cuneate-oblong, obtuse,
quite entire. _h._ 20in. to 30in. in England. This beautiful
species seldom attains a height of more than 6ft. or 8ft. (G. C.
1845, p. 56.)
=BARROW.= Garden Barrows are very numerous, both with and without
wheels. The Flower-pot Barrow has a wheel and a flat surface, on which
plants, pots, or leaves are placed, either directly, or, when small,
in shallow baskets. The Haum Barrow is an open box or case, of wicker
or other work, placed on, or suspended from, a pair of handles, with
or without a wheel, and is useful for carrying litter, leaves, &c. The
Water Barrow, instead of a box, contains a barrel, tub, or cistern, in
which fluid manure, or ordinary water, is conveyed to different parts
of the garden. The Hand-barrow is a frame of wood, carried by two
levers, which form four handles; for removing large pots or tubs of
trees or shrubs it is very useful.
[Illustration: FIG. 207. FLOWER OF BARTONIA AUREA.]
=BARTLINGIA.= A synonym of =Plocama= (which _see_).
=BARTONIA= (in honour of Benjamin S. Barton, M.D., formerly Professor
of Botany at Philadelphia). ORD. _Loasaceæ_. Hardy annuals or
biennials, downy, with stiff and bearded hairs. This genus is now
placed under _Mentzelia_ in most standard botanical works. Flowers
white or yellow, large, terminal, expanding in the evening, when they
are very fragrant, and becoming reddish as they fade. Leaves alternate,
interruptedly pinnatifid. The species are very showy, and well worth
growing. Any ordinary garden soil suits them. Seeds should be raised
in a gentle heat in spring; and, when the seedlings are sufficiently
large, they should be potted singly into small, well-drained pots. In
winter, they should be placed on a dry shelf in a greenhouse or frame.
_B. aurea_ is one of the brightest of hardy annuals, and may be sown
either in a frame, or in the open border in April.
=B. albescens= (whitish).* _fl._, petals ten, pale yellow, disposed
in a leafy panicle. July. _l._ sinuately toothed. Stem with a
white shining epidermis. _h._ 1ft. to 4ft. Chili, 1831. Annual or
biennial. (S. B. F. G. ii., 182.)
=B. aurea= (golden).* _fl._ two or three together, terminal, bright
golden yellow, as large as a half-crown; petals five. June. _h._
1ft. California, 1834. Annual. See Fig. 207. (B. M. 3649.)
=B. nuda= (naked) and =B. ornata= (adorned) are two very pretty
white-flowered biennial species. _h._ 2ft. Missouri, 1811.
=BARYOSMA.= _See_ =Barosma=.
=BASAL=, or =BASILAR=. Situated at the base of anything; as the embryo,
when situated at the bottom of the seed.
=BASELLA= (its Malabar name). Malabar Nightshade. ORD. _Basellaceæ_.
Annual or biennial stove trailers, with white or pinkish flowers, of
no great horticultural value. In India, and elsewhere throughout the
tropics, some of the species are cultivated as pot herbs, and are used
as a substitute for Spinach.
=B. alba= (white).* _fl._ white. August. _l._ heart-shaped,
pointed. _h._ 8in. India, 1688. This plant, either when allowed to
fall in festoons from the roof of a warm house, or treated as a
basket plant, forms an elegant object when in flower.
=BASELLACEÆ.= A series of usually herbaceous climbers, and considered
a tribe of _Chenopodiaceæ_.
=BASIL, SWEET= (_Ocymum basilicum_). This is a tender annual from
India, and must be raised in gentle heat. The foliage is somewhat
largely used for flavouring purposes. Seeds should be sown in April,
the seedlings pricked out into boxes to strengthen, and finally planted
out about 8in. asunder, in beds of light rich soil, in June, being well
watered until fully established. As soon as they bloom, they should be
cut down to within a few inches of the ground, and the portions cut off
should be tied up in small bunches and dried in the shade for winter
use. Some of the plants can be lifted in September, potted up, and
placed in a warm greenhouse for the winter, when the fresh green leaves
will be found very useful. Bush Basil (_Ocymum minimum_) is a dwarfer
plant, but may be treated in the same way. Wild Basil is botanically
known as _Calamintha Clinopodium_.
=BASIL-THYME.= _See_ =Calamintha Acinos=.
=BASI-NERVED.= When the nerves of a leaf spring from the base.
=BASING-UP.= The raising of a small bank of earth entirely round a
plant, so as to retain water immediately about the root. The term is
sometimes used to signify =Earthing= or =Moulding=, which _see_.
=BASKETS.= Few objects contribute more to the adornment of a window,
or the decoration of the diningroom, drawing-room, or glass-house,
than Hanging Baskets, tastefully filled with handsome foliaged and
flowering plants. Baskets are made in different forms and of various
materials, such as wire, terra-cotta, wood, and cork. The Wire Baskets
have a very light and elegant appearance, and are generally used. In
filling Baskets, the inside should be lined with a thick layer of moss,
or _Selaginella Kraussiana_, next to which a layer of coarse sacking
must be placed, to prevent the soil from working through. Terra-cotta
Baskets are very pretty, and are extensively employed in domestic
rooms, but they should always have one or more holes at the bottom, to
facilitate drainage. Rustic Baskets, of cork or wood, are also very
suitable for floral arrangements; those composed of teak-wood are very
generally used for orchids. The compost should be prepared according to
the requirements of the plant or plants intended to be grown, which can
be easily ascertained on reference to such plants in this work. The
soil should not be allowed to get dry; in the event of this happening,
however, a thorough soaking by immersion must be given. As a rule,
attention should be given in the matter of watering every other day,
and light syringing every morning and evening during the spring and
summer months will be most beneficial. The Baskets should be examined
every week, all dead or decaying leaves being removed, and any insects,
which are so likely to get a foothold, destroyed. In arranging the
subjects, the centre plant should be the tallest, the next outer ones
shorter, and the marginal ones of a trailing or drooping habit, so that
the whole may present a symmetrical, and at the same time a natural,
appearance. Wickerwork Baskets are used for carrying or transferring
plants, and are generally made 18in. wide by 20in. deep; they are
extremely useful, and should be in every garden. Split wood and withes
are largely employed in making Baskets. The Planter's Basket, described
by Loudon as a flat, rectangular utensil of wickerwork or boards,
partitioned into three or more parts, for the purpose of carrying
with the gardener when about to plant or remove plants, is now,
unfortunately, almost obsolete. One division is for the plants, another
for those taken up, and a third for the tools to be made use of, and
for any decayed parts of plants, stones, weeds, or other refuse which
may be collected. By using this Basket, order, accuracy, and neatness
are secured. The Sussex "Truck" Baskets, made of willow-wood, are very
useful, being both light and durable. _See also_ =Measures=.
=BASSIA= (named after Ferdinando Bassi, Curator of the Botanic Garden
at Bologna). ORD. _Sapotaceæ_. Handsome lofty-growing lactescent stove
trees, with axillary, solitary, or aggregate flowers, and quite entire,
smooth, coriaceous leaves. They require stove heat, and a compost of
peat and loam. Cuttings, taken from ripened wood, strike readily in
sand, under a hand glass, in a strong moist heat.
=B. butyracea= (buttery). The Indian Butter Tree. _fl._, pedicels
aggregate, and are, as well as the calyces, woolly. _l._ obovate,
8in. to 9in. long, and 4in. to 5in. broad, tomentose beneath. _h._
30ft. to 70ft. Nepaul, 1823. (B. F. F. 35.)
=B. latifolia= (broad-leaved). The Mahwah Tree of Bengal. _fl._,
corolla thick and fleshy; pedicels drooping, terminal. _l._ oblong
or elliptic, smooth above, whitish beneath, 4in. to 8in. long, and
2in. to 4in. broad. _h._ 50ft. India, 1799. (B. F. S. 41.)
=B. longifolia= (long-leaved). _fl._, pedicels axillary, drooping,
crowded round the ends of the branchlets. _l._ ovate-lanceolate,
approximate at the tops of the branches, 6in. long, deciduous. _h._
50ft. Malabar, 1811. (B. F. S. 42.)
=BASS= or =BAST MATS=. These are prepared, chiefly in Russia, from
the inner bark of various Limes (_Tilia_), and are very largely used
in this country by nurserymen for packing purposes. They are also
extensively employed as coverings, being excellent preventatives of the
effects of frost. They are beneficial as a covering for beds of early
vegetables, to prevent radiation during the night. For tying purposes
they are now greatly superseded by Raffia Grass. Archangel Mats are
larger, and of better quality than the St. Petersburgh. Dunnage Mats
are heavy, and generally used for covering, as they are much cheaper.

=BATATAS= (its aboriginal name). ORD. _Convolvulaceæ_. This genus is
now referred to _Ipomæa_. Strong, free-growing, greenhouse or stove
deciduous twiners. Calyx of five sepals; corolla campanulate; stamens
inclosed. They are of easy culture, only requiring plenty of room to
spread, and are well adapted for trellis work, or to run up pillars.
They are all tuberous rooted, and therefore require to be kept dry when
in a dormant state. A rich, open, loamy soil is most suitable. Young
cuttings strike readily under a hand glass, in heat.
=B. bignonioides= (Bignonia-like).* _fl._, corolla dark purple,
funnel-shaped, with a curled limb; peduncles many-flowered, nutant,
shorter than the petioles. July. _l._ three-lobed; hind lobes
rounded, imbricate. Cayenne, 1824. (B. M. 2645.)
=B. Cavanillesii= (Cavanilles').* _fl._ pale whitish-red; lobes
of corolla obtuse, crenulated; peduncles one to three-flowered.
August. _l._ quinate; leaflets ovate, entire, unequal. Native
country unknown, 1815.
[Illustration: FIG. 208. BATATAS EDULIS, showing Tuber.]
=B. edulis= (edible).* Sweet Potato. _fl._, corolla 1in. long,
white outside and purple inside; peduncles equal in length to the
petioles, or exceeding them, three to four-flowered. _l._ variable,
usually angular, also lobed. Stem creeping, rarely climbing. East
Indies, 1797. See Fig. 208.
=B. glaucifolia= (milky-green-leaved). _fl._, corolla small,
purplish, with an inflated tube, and ovate, acute segments;
peduncles two-flowered, length of leaves. May. _l._ sagittate,
truncate behind, on long petioles. Mexico, 1732.
=B. heterophylla= (various-leaved). _fl._ blue; peduncles solitary,
axillary, bearing each three sessile flowers. July. _l._ quinately
palmate; lobes or leaflets ovate-spathulate, acute. Plant very
villous. Cuba, 1817.
=B. paniculata= (panicled).* _fl._ large, purple; peduncles
much exceeding the petioles, many-flowered, dichotomously and
corymbosely panicled. June _l._ palmate, five to seven-cleft;
lobes ovate-lanceolate or elliptic, bluntish, rarely
sub-acuminated. India, 1799. (G. C. n. s., x., 341.)
=B. senegalensis= (Senegalese). _fl._ white or purplish, large;
peduncles three-flowered. June. _l._ quinately palmate; lobes
ovate, obtuse, middle one the largest. Stem white, tubercular.

ovate-cordate, solitary leaf at the base of each pedicel. July.
_l._ digitately quinate; leaflets petiolate, acuminated, quite
entire. France, 1820.
=BATEMANNIA= (named after Mr. J. Bateman, a collector and cultivator
of orchids, and author of a "Monograph of Odontoglossum," and other
works on orchidaceous plants). ORD. _Orchidaceæ_. A small and
easily-grown genus of dwarf, compact-growing epiphytes, closely
allied to _Maxillaria_, but differing from that genus in having the
anther-bed with a membranous border. They may be grown in pots, in
a compost of peat and moss, or on blocks of wood with moss. They
require an intermediate house and plenty of water in the growing
season. Propagated by divisions and offsets. They have generally a
free-flowering habit; but some of the species are not so ornamental as
many other orchids.
=B. armillata= (braceleted). _fl._ green, white. 1875. (R. X. O.
316.)
=B. Burtii= (Burt's). _fl._ red-brown, yellow base, 3in. across;
lip white, tipped chocolate. Autumn. _l._ elliptic-oblong, or
ligulate, sub-distichous. Plant bulbless. Costa Rica, 1872. (B. M.
6003.)
=B. Colleyi= (Colley's). _fl._ on a pendulous raceme, rising from
the base of the pseudo-bulbs; sepals and petals brownish-purple
within, green without; lip white. Autumn. _h._ 6in. Demerara, 1834.
(B. R. 1714.)
=B. grandiflora= (large-flowered).* _fl._, flower-spike coming
up with the young growth, bearing three or four flowers, of
curious structure; sepals and petals olive-green, striped with
reddish-brown; lip white, with reddish-purple streaks, orange or
yellow towards the base. Pseudo-bulbs ovate, 3in. or 4in. long, and
bearing two large, broad, leathery leaves. New Grenada, 1866. (B.
M. 5567.)
=B. Wallisii= (Wallis').* _fl._, sepals light greenish-yellow
outside, olive-green to chestnut-brown inside, with some yellow
at the base; petals with scarlet stripes at the very base, but
otherwise coloured like the sepals; lip blade greenish, with a
brownish hue at the anterior part; peduncles slender, corymbose.
_h._ 1ft. Columbia, 1876.
=BATSCHIA.= _See_ =Lithospermum=.
=BAUERA= (named after Francis and Ferdinand Bauer, German botanical
draughtsmen). ORD. _Saxifragaceæ_. Small shrubs, natives of Australia,
New Zealand, &c. Flowers axillary, solitary, pedunculate. Leaves six in
a whorl, approximating by threes, and therefore, as it were, opposite
and ternate, exstipulate. Easily cultivated in a compost of sandy loam
and peat. Propagated by cuttings, placed in sandy soil, under a glass.
These very pretty little greenhouse evergreens flower nearly the whole
year through.
=B. humilis= (low). _fl._, corolla red, one-half smaller than _B.
rubioides_, and the plant is altogether much smaller. July to
December. _l._ oblong, crenated. _h._ 1ft. New South Wales, 1804.
(L. B. C. 1197.)
=B. rubiæfolia= (madder-leaved). Synonymous with _B. rubioides_.
=B. rubioides= (madder-like).* _fl._ pale red, or pink. _l._
lanceolate, crenated. _h._ 1ft. to 2ft. New South Wales, 1793. SYN.
_B. rubiæfolia_. (A. B. R. 198.)
=BAUHINIA= (in honour of John and Caspar Bauhin, two famous botanists
of the sixteenth century). Mountain Ebony. ORD. _Leguminosæ_. Very
showy stove evergreen shrubs. Flowers racemose; petals five, spreading,
oblong, rather unequal, upper one usually distant from the rest. Leaves
two-lobed, constantly composed of two jointed leaflets at the top of
the petiole, sometimes nearly free, but usually joined together, more
or less, and with an awn in the recess. They succeed well in a mixture
of sand, loam, and peat, requiring good drainage and moderately firm
potting. Propagated by cuttings, which should be taken when the wood is
neither very ripe nor very young; the leaves must be dressed off, and
the cuttings planted in sand, under a glass, in moist heat. Although
glorious objects in the tropics, few of the species flower under our
comparatively sunless skies; those which hitherto have succeeded well
in Britain are marked with an asterisk.
=B. acuminata= (taper-pointed-leaved). _fl._ pure white; petals
broadly ovate, hardly stipitate. June. _l._ rather cordate at the
base, smoothish; leaflets connected beyond the middle, ovate,
acuminated, parallel, four-nerved. _h._ 5ft. to 6ft. Malabar, 1808.
=B. aurita= (eared). _fl._ white; petals ovate, on short stipes.
August. _l._ glabrous, cordate at the base; leaflets connected the
fourth part of their length, oblong-lanceolate, nearly parallel,
six to eight-nerved. _h._ 4ft. to 6ft. Jamaica, 1756.
=B. corymbosa= (corymbose).* _fl._ in loose racemes; petals
pinkish, regular, crenulated at the edge. Summer. _l._, leaflets
semi-oval, obtuse, parallel, connected nearly to the middle,
three-nerved, cordate at the base, the nerves on the under surface,
as well as the petioles, branches, and calyces, clothed with rufous
villi. Shrubby climber. India, 1818. (G. C. 1881, xvi., p. 204.)
=B. inermis= (unarmed). _fl._ white; petals linear; racemes
terminal, leafless, simple. _l._ ovate at the base, ferruginous

Legume 8in. to 12in. long. _l._ elliptic, rounded at the base,
membranous, shining above, rather pilose beneath; nerves
ferruginous; leaflets semi-ovate, obtuse, approximate, five-nerved;
free. _h._ 20ft. Caracas, 1817.
=B. natalensis= (Natal).* _fl._ white, 1-1/2in. across,
opposite the leaves. September. _l._ small, alternate, of two
obliquely-oblong rounded leaflets. Natal, 1870. (B. M. 6086.)
=B. petiolata= (long-petioled). _fl._ white, 3in. long, in terminal
clusters. Autumn. _l._ stalked, ovate-acuminate, five-nerved,
glabrous. Columbia, 1852. SYN. _Casparia speciosa_. (B. M. 6277.)
=B. pubescens= (downy). _fl._ white, large, much crowded; petals
obovate; peduncles three to four-flowered. _l._ rather cordate at
the base, pubescent beneath and on the petioles; leaflets connected
beyond the middle, oval, obtuse, four-nerved, nearly parallel. _h._
4ft. to 6ft. Jamaica, 1823.
=B. purpurea= (purple). _fl._, petals red, one of them streaked
with white on the claw, lanceolate, acute. Legume linear, 1ft.
long. _l._ cordate at the base, coriaceous, ultimately glabrous;
leaflets connected much above the middle, broadly ovate, obtuse,
four-nerved; free. _h._ 6ft. India, 1778.
=B. racemosa= (racemose). _fl._ white; petals obovate, obtuse;
raceme somewhat corymbose. _l._ cordate at the base, clothed
with silky villi beneath, as well as on the peduncles, petioles,
branches, calyces, and petals; leaflets broadly ovate, obtuse,
connected to the middle, five-nerved. India, 1790. Shrubby climber.
(B. F. S. 182.)
=B. tomentosa= (tomentose). _fl._, petals pale yellow, with a red
spot at the claw, obovate, obtuse; peduncles one to three-flowered.
_l._ ovate or roundish at the base; under surface villous, as
well as the petioles, branches, stipules, peduncles, bracts, and
calyces; leaflets connected beyond the middle, oval, obtuse, three
to four-nerved. _h._ 6ft. to 12ft. Ceylon, 1808.
=B. variegata= (variegated).* _fl._ red, marked with white, and
yellow at the base, in loose terminal racemes; petals ovate,
nearly sessile. June. _l._ cordate at the base, glabrous; leaflets
broadly-ovate, obtuse, five-nerved, connected beyond the middle;
free. _h._ 20ft. Malabar, 1690.
=B. v. chinensis= (Chinese). _fl._, petals lilac, with one purple
spot at the base of each, acute. _l._ rounded at the base. China.
=BAWD-MONEY.= _See_ =Meum=.
=BAY-TREE.= _See_ =Laurus nobilis=.
=BEAK.= Anything resembling the beak of a bird, as in _Aconitum_; the
point which ends the helmet or upper sepal; hard, sharp points.
=BEAM TREE.= _See_ =Pyrus Aria=.
=BEAN BEETLE= (_Bruchus granarius_). This insect, by depositing its
eggs in the seeds of Beans and Peas, causes a great amount of injury.
It is about an eighth of an inch long, black, with brown hairs and
white spots; tip of the tail prolonged, downy; front pair of legs
reddish. The most effectual means of prevention is to destroy, when
sowing, all seeds infested by it; and this may be detected by the skin
of the seed being unusually transparent above the tunnel for exit.
Imported seeds of Broad Beans are often much infested. "Dipping the
Beans or Peas in boiling water for one minute is stated to kill the
grub inside; but, as dipping for four minutes generally destroys the
germinating power, the experiment is much too hazardous for general
use", (Ormerod).
=BEAN CAPER.= _See_ =Zygophyllum=.
=BEAN FLY.= _See_ =Aphides= and =Black Fly=.
=BEANS.= There are three sections of these in cultivation for garden
purposes, viz.: The Dwarf or French Bean; the Climbing, or Scarlet
Runner; and the ordinary Broad Bean. _See also_ =Faba= and =Phaseolus=.
[Illustration: FIG. 209. BROAD BEAN PLANT IN FLOWER (FABA VULGARIS).]
_Soil._ All Beans like a somewhat loamy soil, which, to secure good
crops, must be deeply worked and heavily manured. The Kidney Beans,
dwarf and tall, however, do not care for so heavy a soil as the Broad
and Long-podded kinds; and this fact should be borne in mind when
selecting their respective situations. The term Kidney is generally
applied to both the Dwarf or French and the Climbing or Scarlet Runner.
[Illustration: FIG. 210. PODS OF BROAD BEAN.]
[Illustration: FIG. 211. BROAD BEAN SEED.]
BROAD AND LONG-PODDED (_Faba vulgaris_). _Cultivation_: As early as
possible in the autumn, deeply trench a piece of ground, and work in a
heavy dressing of manure, leaving the surface of the soil in ridges, to
become well aërated by winter frosts. Where desired, a piece of ground
on a warm, protected border, can also be deeply dug in November, and a
few rows of Mazagans sown to stand the winter. When up, draw a ridge
of soil on either side the rows, and in frosty weather strew a few
handfuls of bracken, or other light, dry litter, over them. Not much
is, however, gained by this winter sowing. Early in January, level the
ridges with a fork, working the whole of the surface soil over, and
towards the end of the month, make the first sowing, choosing Mazagan
and other early varieties. Mark out two rows, 9in. asunder, leave a
space of 30in., then another two rows, and so on throughout the piece
sown. If preferred, they may be sown in single rows at intervals of
1-1/2ft. The drills should be about 3in. deep, and the seed from 7in.
to 9in. apart in the rows. Where the double-row system is adopted,
arrange the seed for the plants to come alternately. In March, get
in the main sowing of the Broad and later Long-podded kinds, in the
manner already described; another sowing for late use may be made in
April. When the plants are about 6in. high, earth up as recommended
for those sown in the autumn. As soon as a good crop is set, pinch out
the tops of the plants, to assist the maturation of the Beans, and
prevent the attacks of the fly. Figs. 209, 210, and 211 are excellent
representations of the flowering plant, pods, and seed of the Broad
Bean.
_Sorts._ For early use: Early Mazagan, Long-pod, Marshall's Early
Prolific, and Seville Long-pod. For late use: Carter's Mammoth
Long-pod, and Broad Windsor (white variety). These are all distinct and
good varieties.
